Knee pain after a twist, a sport, or even just everyday movement? It could be your meniscus.

The meniscus is a vital shock absorber in your knee and injuries to it are more common than you might think. In this short video, Dr Kitchen walks through what meniscus injuries are, how they happen, and what your treatment options look like, from conservative management through to surgical repair.

Not every knee is the same — so why should every knee replacement be?

Patient-specific knee replacement is an approach where surgery is planned and tailored to your individual anatomy, rather than using a one-size-fits-all technique. In this short video, Dr Kitchen walks through what this means and how it shapes the way he approaches each patient's care.

I recently had the pleasure of presenting to local Adelaide GPs on the management of hip and knee arthritis, covering everything from prevention and conservative treatment to surgical options and emerging technology in arthritis care.

I value the opportunity to connect with GP colleagues and support ongoing education in the community. Strong communication between specialists and primary care providers helps patients get timely, well-informed care. Thank you to everyone who attended and contributed to the discussion!

I’m pleased to announce that I am now regularly consulting and operating at Port Pirie Hospital!

Alongside my practice at sportsmed in Adelaide, I’m committed to bringing quality orthopaedic care to regional South Australia, because where you live shouldn’t determine the care you can access.
